Maintenance would be a Festivus miracle. :) I do have to commend our hardworking pathways crews as they do a great job of maintaining the pathways. I also want to thank them for ‘overplowing’ some of them so that there is a packed snow pathway on the sides that makes fatbiking much more fun. As for grievances, cities and citizens (of Calgary) are reluctant to pay even a penny more for common sense things like you’ve mentioned, until they use them. An unfortunate ‘chicken and egg’ scenario. Thanks for your holiday take on biking. See you out there riding.
